First we have to suspend belief and reality and pretend that 11 million people can be ethnically cleansed from the US. OK...we may have to chanel Eichmann and Heydrich to accomplish that but OK...say we could do that
The racist in you just assumed that the 11 million are of a particular race. Very telling.
Now we have an absence of say...6-7 million workers at a time when there is 3.5% unemployment. Hmmmmm what could possibly go wrong?
The first thing is a positive. Wages WOULD rise. Dramatically and quickly. Sounds good right? But wait...how much would employers end up paying for menial work? How much would it cost to entice a worker in that market to bust their ass picking and crating vegetable? $20/hr? $30? I wonder what tripling or quadrupling minimum wage rates would affect...
Yet your ilk is constantly bitching about a $15 minimum wage.
And it would go wrong for whom? Suddenly, employers are willing to pay (dum dum DUUUUUMMM) $15 per hour minimum because there is now a shortage of workers. What's the problem with that? Fruit costs more? Now most people can afford it.
Either higher wages are good or they are bad. Take your pick. Quit using them when convenient.
Unless, the real aim is to make sure that the market doesn't cause higher wages....but the leftists? Commies are to thank for better wages. You better vote for commies or you will starve?
I'm talking to the people who refuse to enact even 20% increases to minimum wage because they think it would impact prices in a bad way
When dumbasses artificially create a serious lack of demand at a steep price, unemployment will go up sharply and no one can afford the expensive goods and services. It's not hard. You and other leftists have no faith in markets. That's the problem.
Newsflash...employers would never let this happen. They just wouldn't. They have money and money talks.
I agree that employers are partly to blame. But, I don't think they would do much to stop it. They would just offset their losses by price increases and it would balance out -- market solution.
Letting the market fix the problem ends up giving us a much better economy. Government is rarely a good solution and is often the problem.
